Our aim is to make you more comfortable.

To an ache that you may feel is not serious, but you would rather be without it, our aim is to get you feeling as well as is possible. Whether your symptoms are recent or new or you have suffered them for many years, we can usually help.

When you initially visit us we will discuss your problem at length with you and ask you questions about your medical history and other medications you are prescribed or take, your general state of health, your other body systems or functions and your lifestyle, this is to assess whether your problem is something that we would be able to help you with or possibly a condition that requires further investigation such as an xray or referral back to your doctor.

A commonly asked when is "what is the difference between osteopathy and chiropractic" or "osteopaths and chiropractors" the answer is that it depends upon the practitioner, but modern osteopathy and chiropractic education is similar in a lot of ways.  Cranial and classical osteopathy are different to both and require extensive post graduate education, whereas cranial osteopathy embraces modern osteopathy its technique is very different and gentle, classical differs within its principles and technique and they both tend to focus on the whole of the individual rather than just musculoskeletal care.  They are gentle and relaxing and treat the person as an individual and every treatment is different, most people enjoy it and feel better for it.

Osteopathy is regulated by the General Osteopathic Council (GOsC) which is a statutory self regulated body. It is illegal to practise as an osteopath unless registered by the GOsC. This protects the public by ensuring adequate training of osteopaths and ongoing learning (continual professional development or CPD is mandatory) is taking place to ensure knowledge is kept up to date.
